Another Bloody Weekend

Three men were killed — including a man who died shielding his mother from gunfire — and at least 32 others were wounded in weekend shootings as summer started in Chicago.

James Jones, 21, tried to protect his 46-year-old mother Alicia Jones on the front porch of their home when a gunman opened fire from a gangway about noon Saturday in the 8400 block of South Colfax, according to their family and authorities.

Of course, unmentioned in the article is that three (of four total) of Alicia's children have died in violence over the years, so either she has the worst luck imaginable, or there's something lacking in her child rearing skills.

In the meantime, post a new nickname for Rahm. Murder Mayor is way too tame.

How many would be saved if they wore bullet proof vests like cops do? Now deaders, all you have to do is bury them. All these wounded must cost the taxpayers a bundle ever year in medical bills. Enough to get the pension fund in the black?

Her first child died at the age of 4 when Gang members threw a Molotov cocktail through a window 1994. I forget if it was their house, or a building it was thrown in. Her daughter who was killed in 2006 was 19. She was killed at her job at KFC when the place was robbed and she was killed. She was also the valedictorian of her HS graduating class. Then you have james jones. While I *personally* don't believe a drug dealer deserves to die because of that "occupation", it still very much is a death sentence and if you play with fire you get burnt. He was also a Gang member so...

They brought back the crown cap, now how about making the management people earn their spot like the old days. Back in the day if we were down something management brought it in or risk losing their spot. Its sad when you go into check off and the twenty something guy has more activity than the management guy.

there should be a name or nickname for the Mayor who presides (rules?) over the deadliest big city in America....what about a contest to select the name?.....meaning, if Pres O'Loser can use the n word, some creative can develop a name for Rhamulous...

SCC why so anti Rahm? Who would be better? Imagine the shit show this city would be in if Chuy or Willie Wilson became mayor. Be careful what you ask for. No mayor, Sup, or even policeman is perfect but he's still way better than the alternative. Aside from the small number of miserable complain about everything group of guys/gals that work in every district most don't mind Rahm.
